I am a seasoned professional with over a decade of experience in the field of energy storage and conversion. My journey began in 2013, focusing on the development of efficient electrocatalysts and active materials for lithium-ion batteries and fuel cells. After completing my Ph.D. in 2018, I continued my research at Georgia Tech, specializing in oxygen electrocatalyst development for PEMFCs and metal-air batteries, and managing projects on fast-charging anode materials and high nickel cathodes for LIBs.

Since 2024, I have served as a senior scientist at StoreDot, where I lead projects involving the synthesis of advanced materials like SiCx and SiOx, and validate their applications in both anode and cathode technologies. My expertise extends to electrochemical analysis techniques for lithium-ion batteries, cell degradation analysis, and durability testing, along with proficiency in solid-state battery fabrication and testing.
